It is very important to know that this doctor is NOT a board certified Allergist and misrepresents her qualifications. Her "advice" is nothing I have heard anywhere, after consulting with close to 10 Board Certified Allergists affiliated with major research universities. I'm afraid her "tips" could endanger children's lives. She has also testified against parents in legal cases with schools such that children with life-threatening food allergies were not safe or included in public school settings. For Food Allergy resources written well and by highly qualified, Board-Certified (actual) Allergists, try either "What Your Doctor May Not Tell You About Children's Allergies and Asthma: Simple Steps to Help Stop Attacks," by Paul Ehrlich and Larry Chiaramonte or "Understanding and Managing Your Child's Food Allergies," by Scott Schicherer. The resources by Ehrlich, Chiaramonte and Schicherer are well articulated, easy to follow and empowering for parents and children.
